A Tumblr Community for The Bill...?
Is there any interest in creating a community for fans of The Bill to discuss and have more opportunities to interact/chat about the show almost like a forum from what it sounds like?
If you'd be interested, please like/comment/reblog this post to show your potential interest so we can all see if it would be worth attempting to create one or not.
Tumblr is beta testing a new 'community' idea [apparently not available to all as yet but should appear for most] that it says is:
Communities is a new feature in development, currently in beta testing. Our hope is to empower everyone on Tumblr to create new, dedicated spaces to connect with people over shared interests. It’s a bit like using tags but more contained, it’s a bit like having a shared blog but with more options, and it’s a bit like a group chat except it’s slower. Access to communities is not yet out to all users, and currently has incomplete support across the Tumblr mobile apps
Labs blog post
Help page post/more information
It's still in testing mode and they're asking for feedback. They state it can be a private group or more open access.
Public communities can be seen and visited by non-members, logged in or logged out. However, only the feed of posts in each community tab, and the About page, are accessible. Non-members cannot view the member list, see who reacted with what, or see community comments. Non-members with an invite can see everything a member can see, but cannot interact with anything until they accept the invitation.
Private communities cannot be seen or visited by non-members at all. The existence of a private community is not hidden, however, if someone has the URL (they’ll see a message like “this is a private community”). Non-members with an invite can see everything a member can see, but cannot interact with anything until they accept the invitation.
I wrote a tag list of every member of the cast including notable long running guests. It took FOREVER. And this is what Tumblr cuts it down to. FGS.

I'm not sure if it was a conscious thing that was added in by the writers or just something that came around because of the personalities of each character, but I do enjoy an ep where Reg and John interact.
Special notice to All Change for being a prime example of this 😂
14.72 Stop
BOULTON: There’s a mate of mine in Liverpool, told me about one of his relief who was working in conjunction with one of their scrotes. What he’d do, is he’d find out when people weren’t in their homes, he’d phone this lad, this lad’d go round and burgle their houses. CARVER: They’re like that where you’re from.
BOULTON: I’m beginning to think Reg is haunting me.
John decides Reg is a criminal mastermind. A fun episode, but I was distracted a lot by the blatant Jim/John ;)

Books I read in 2019
Here are the books I read in 2019; links go through to the posts I wrote about each one. I still haven’t finished Finnegans Wake (which I started in 2018), although I did write a little post about it for The Quietus. Also, I still need to finish The Age of Surveillance Capitalism. For the most important book of our generation, it could be a bit shorter!
Toy Fabels – Cass McCombs Jake’s Thing – Kingsley Amis The Topeka School – Ben Lerner American Primitive – Mary Oliver The Hawk in the Rain – Ted Hughes The Age of Surveillance Capitalism – Shoshana Zuboff The Crystal Prison – Robin Jarvis Waking Up in Toytown – John Burnside Childhood – Tove Ditlevsen Usborne’s World of the Unknown: Ghosts Lanny – Max Porter My Year of Rest and Relaxation – Ottessa Moshfegh Perfect Sound Whatever – James Acaster On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous – Ocean Vuong Selected Poems – Norman Nicholson Hark – Sam Lipsyte Sweet Sorrow – David Nicholls Trick Mirror – Jia Tolentino Plume – Will Wiles On Chapel Sands – Laura Cumming 81 Austerities – Sam Riviere Gunpowder – Bernard O’Donoghue Riddley Walker – Russell Hoban ‘Broadsword Calling Danny Boy’ – Geoff Dyer Surprisingly Down to Earth, and Very Funny – Limmy Out of the Woods – Luke Turner Social Creature – Tara Isabella Burton Exposure – Olivia Sudjic Folk – Zoe Gilbert Kingdomland – Rachael Allen The Woman in the Dunes – Kobo Abe Outline – Rachel Cusk The Built Moment – Lavinia Greenlaw Selected Poems – W. S. Graham The Adulterants – Joe Dunthorne Hera Lindsay Bird – Hera Lindsay Bird Fearless: The Making of Post-Rock – Jeanette Leech The Wasp Factory – Iain Banks
I particularly enjoyed Lanny, Trick Mirror, Plume and Limmy’s autobiography (although please listen to the audiobook). Riddley Walker is a book that will stay with me forever, and that I hope to return to again and again.
My Dad died this year, and reading poetry has been a great solace. As a tribute to Dad, I put together a commemorative booklet to send out to friends and family and included a number of our favourite poems. One of the poems was ‘Going Without Saying’ by Bernard O’Donoghue:
Going Without Saying
It is a great pity we don’t know When the dead are going to die So that, over a last companionable Drink, we could tell them How much we liked them.
Happy the man who, dying, can Place his hand on his heart and say: ‘At least I didn’t neglect to tell The thrush how beautifully she sings.’
Another poem I included was ‘The Butterfly House’ by Frank Ormsby, the inspiration for the cover (see above) which was designed by Louise Boulter. The poem ends:
… with luck you will emerge into the garden, badged and sleeved with butterflies, a thousand bright sails opening around you.

He missed Wimbledon in 2007 with a wrist harm however has performed yearly since, and has reached not less than the quarter-finals every time.
The Scot’s final aggressive match in 2017 got here at Wimbledon – the place he was the defending champion – and led to a five-set defeat by American Sam Querrey within the final eight.

Paire is a strong, probably harmful, however positively unpredictable opponent: and coincidentally the person Murray beat in final yr’s fourth spherical earlier than his hip turned unmanageable.
The brand new British primary Edmund may play the three-time champion Novak Djokovic within the third spherical, and final yr’s semi-finalist Konta additionally appears to be like to have some difficult early spherical matches.

If the 23-time Grand Slam champion beats Dutch world quantity 107 Rus she’s going to then face one other participant ranked exterior the highest 100 in both Czech Tereza Smitkova or Bulgarian Viktoriya Tomova.
Williams may face Ukrainian fifth seed Elina Svitolina within the third spherical.
Slovakia’s world quantity 32 Dominika Cibulkova, who was not seeded on account of the Williams determination and complained it was “unfair”, faces France’s Alize Cornet – the winner probably taking part in Konta in spherical two.
Can Konta match final yr’s run?
Konta, 27, memorably reached the semi-finals on the All England Membership final yr, dropping to eventual runner-up Venus Williams, serving to the Briton climb to a career-high fourth within the rankings.
Nevertheless, she has didn’t match that degree of efficiency since and has dropped to 22nd.
She begins on the All England Membership this yr with a primary match towards 21-year-old Russian Vikhlyantseva, who’s ranked 106th on the earth.
Konta is projected to play world primary Simona Halep, whom she beat within the quarter-finals final yr, within the fourth spherical.
What concerning the different Britons?
There are a selection of eye-catching attracts for the opposite Britons in the primary attracts.
Within the males’s, British quantity two Cameron Norrie faces Aljaz Bedene, who represented Britain earlier than switching again to his start nation Slovenia final yr, whereas wildcard Liam Broady meets Canadian 13th seed Milos Raonic, who was crushed by Murray within the 2016 last.

Andrew Ross - DCI if I remember rightly he was part of MIT and kept coming over for murders - the Serial Killer/Des's Firebombing/Cathy's murders etc.
Frank Keane - DCI from MIT. Rubbed everyone up the wrong way and thought the sun shone out of his daughter - Emma's - arse.
Karen Lacy - stuck up DI from SO15 who immediately alienated most of Sun Hill after Emma's death by refusing to let her friends in uniform help and would only let them man a cordon and then told Jack that CID could only help if EVERYTHING was run by her and came back to her and her alone.
Tom Baker - TREV which was a fan-coined term that stands for Totally Reliable Extra Veteran'. Tom was an outstanding backup CID member for over a thousand episodes. He's even in the Guinness Book Of World Records for it.
Terry Knowles - Terry was a Special Constable who idolized Des and wanted to be like him. He tried to copy how he'd seen him pick up a woman and flirt at a blonde in a convertible. Unfortunately, it all went wrong when she stabbed him in the neck and severed his jugular and he died, leaving a 2-year-old son fatherless.
Doug Wright - husband of Sgt Nikki Wright. Nikki transferred to Sun Hill when she got fed up with the confusion over two Sgt Wright's and then having to work opposing shifts. He's based at Sun Hill but they cross over to police a football match. Sadly Doug ends up getting stabbed and they realise there's a Cop Killer on the loose after he taunts them and goes on to murder new recruit Billy Rowan on his very first day.
Mark Rollin - Lance Powell's Boyfriend/Fiance/Civil Partner/Husband. Mark is a Sgt in CO19 and keeps his sexuality hidden to avoid the banter and bullying. He goes to pieces after shooting dead Jeff Clarke and he and Lance separate - only for Lance to go out drinking to try to cheer himself up. It ended with Lance being murdered by a gay serial killer pair.
Steve Hodges - an irritating little man who was the Detective Superintendent at CIB at the time that Claire Stanton was undercover trying to get information to prove that Don Beech was corrupt. He expected Claire to pull evidence out of her arse and moaned constantly.
Rachel Kitson - Crime Scene Photographer who murdered old school friend turned Super Model Cindy Statham. She got away with it and someone else was accused and locked up...but then Jo went back and looked at the footage again as she had a niggling feeling. Rachel realised she was on to her and took her hostage at gunpoint. It was Stuart getting suspicious when he received a text calling him 'hun' and realising that something was very wrong that saved her life with seconds to go.
Important Reoccurring Characters (Civilians):
Rod Jessop - June's second husband after Jim. He is a headteacher and a good man who has 2 children of his own. At first, June isn't too sure as she thinks he's a little too keen but she warms to him and they fall in love and take early retirement together.
Irene Radford - Mother of Karl, Wayne and David Radford, a large crime family with a history going back decades with Gina. She takes Gina hostage at one point and she and David are literally seconds from killing Smithy and Kerry at another point!
Louise Larson - Wife of Pete Larson. Unhappily married but settled until she met Smithy. Feisty, sarcastic and full of one-liners, she kept him on his toes and they wanted to leave after she agreed to give evidence (Pete was arrested after almost murdering Smithy. I'm sensing a theme here).
Abi Nixon - The cause of Sam shrieking "MY DAUGHTER!!!!!" Had a fling with Matt Boyden - as you do. Then ended up pregnant and engaged to Hugh Wallis - a profiler - who manipulated Abi into it as revenge. He forced Sam to think her daughter was a victim of the Serial Killer. She keeps the baby and her relationship with her mother improves.
Cindy Hunter - Phil Hunter's wife who sees all he does on the side and - usually forgives him, even when a major criminal demands he be allowed to sleep with Cindy. Gregory doesn't force her to sleep with him but does take degrading pictures of her to wind Phil up. She still forgives him... but she can't get past finding out he has a daughter with another major criminal's wife when they are trying for a baby of their own and they finally split.
Jenny Delaney - The girlfriend of George Garfield at first, Jenny is the nurse who looks after Dave Quinnan when he is attacked and left for dead in a youth club. She and Dave fall in love and have an affair which ends up in George leaving Sun Hill. They marry but do not get their happily ever after as Dave and Polly grow closer... and closer...
Kristen Shaw - Drug dealer who Zain goes undercover to catch and he ends up falling for her. She accidentally murders Honey by shooting her when the gun goes off in a struggle (Honey was trying to get Zain to do the right thing and arrest her with him). Zain reluctantly puts Honey's body in the water and they try to escape but in the end, he can't go through with it and refuses to get on the boat with her to escape. He removed the bullets from her gun and so both ended up arrested.
James Tennant - The father of Amy Tennant. This storyline goes on forever for over a year and Neil and James get close and become good friends through it before Amy is found.
Scott Burnett - Scott is the husband of a woman who is found murdered. At first his best friend is charged with it and as his FLO, Honey helps support him through it. They fall in love and in a whirlwind romance they get married.... only for Honey to realise that Scott actually murdered his first wife!
Laura Meadows - Jack's long-suffering wife of almost 30 years who put up with a lot, including affairs. It comes to a head when Jack - in full midlife crisis mode - thinks he's in love with Debbie McAllister and wants to support her and her new baby. Debbie thinks of him mostly as a father figure and is horrified when he finally puts the moves on.
Lilian Rickman - Cass' mum is devastated when her daughter is killed by the Sun Hill Serial Killer. She travels down and bonds with the team and later invites them to the funeral in Liverpool which some travel up to and then have to go straight on shift once they get back to London. She later returns to tie up the sale of Cass' flat and she and Tony grow closer and end up sleeping together.
Marie Graham/Carver - The bereaved mother whose daughter killed herself after being accused of sleeping with underage students. She's an alcoholic who seemed to understand Jim and all his problems... and then started to abuse him 2 days after their marriage. (he should have known it was a bad omen when he and June almost kissed the day of the wedding when trapped with Polly and Tony!)He is accused of abusing her before he ends up in the hospital (Gabriel hit him over the back of the head with a vodka bottle - long story) and he cracks under accusations and shows his many wounds. He leaves Marie and goes on to recover and get back together with June... only for Marie to turn up on THEIR wedding day and cause a scene at the reception and then fall down the stairs and knock herself out. Jim, with a sprained ankle, ends up going into hospital too!
Pauline Smith - Smithy's mum seen in Killer On The Run. His father was an abusive drunk who used to knock her and Smithy around until Smithy was old enough to go out with his friends. Smithy has little to do with his unnamed father and next to no contact. Pauline adores her son and is very proud of him. They are close and Smithy has a key to her house. He also had an unnamed little brother as a PC (mentioned in Soft Talking) but this seemed forgotten when he returned as a Sgt.

I loved this episode if only for the hymn singing bit where Liz has to literally elbow John to stop him evil eyeing suspects and 'join in'. 🤣
13.76 Last Respects
BROWNLOW: Four officers? Well at the very least, it should boost the hymn singing.
BOULTON: Follow that hearse.
LINES: Did you check the coffin, Liz? RAWTON: What? LINES: To make sure the old girl didn’t get away too.
Jack sees the death of the matriarch of a crime family as an opportunity to catch some jewel thieves. Unusually, he ends up outwitted—the fact that it’s by a pretty lady is less surprising.
The old marrieds are very jovial in this one. Not a hint of grumpiness in sight.
